1st with a 1124 drive i was unable to get past the 1st reboot
windows\system32\config\system
0xc00000e9
windows failed to load because the system registry file is missing or corrupt.
would pop up when you tried to boot from the ssd
I have now a 1126 with the latest firmware upgrade, and it wont even get past the the update part of the install process (last stage) -

I have not tried this drive myself but if you are trying to load a win 7 SP1 disk and it is failing it is most likely a firmware issue. Make sure in the bios you are setup as an AHCI drive if using a single drive. Make the first boot drive is the DVD drive, second boot drive the SSD.
OCZ SSD drives are the absolute worst, the most compatible drives are the intels..
Contact their tech support if none of this works and let them know the error messages. I am sure your are not the first. -
I have posted in the corsair forums, and I have seen others with similar problems, with no real word on the issue. Yet I seen 1 dude with an asus g74 (same chipset and stuff) and his works (shrug)
I would change between raid and achi in the bios, the drive would disappear on reboot, I'd toggle between the two and it would reappear. (I've read that installing in raid was recommended, as it still enables achi, but I've tried even ide mode with no success.) -
If you still can, replace it with a Crucial M4. Those ssds have a very high reliability rate.

I asked for a different hard drive, but I have to pay a restocking fee. Kinda sucks, never even thought there would be such a thing as compatibility issues for a drive.
This is my 1st SSD, so not to familiar with whats all involved, I have read reviews for that last few years, but I must have missed the ones that had troubles. -
As far as reliability in SSDs, I think Crucial and Intel are leading the industry. Corsair, Kingston, and OCZ are generally the next competitors in terms of reliability. I'm not sure what else I can advise you to do because you already updated the firmware.

I tried a OCZ in my GT780R and it had issues left and right. So I switched to the Crucial M4 and it is rock solid.
